Ezekiel 23:22-35

22Therefore, O OholibahH172, thusH3541 saith the LordH136 GODH136: BeholdH2005, I will raiseH5782 upH5921 thy loversH157 againstH5921 thee, from whomH834 thy soulH5315 is alienatedH5361, and I will bringH935 them againstH5921 thee on everyH5439 sideH5439;

23the BabyloniansH3778 and allH3605 the ChaldeansH3778, PekodH6489 and ShoaH7772 and KoaH6970, and allH3605 the Assyrians with them: desirableH2531 youngH1121 menH970, governorsH6346 and rulersH5461 allH3605 of them, princes and menH970 of renownH7121, allH3605 of them ridingH7392 uponH7121 horsesH5483.

24And they shall comeH935 againstH5921 thee with weaponsH2021, chariotsH7393, and wagonsH1534, and with an assemblyH6951 of peoplesH5971; they shall setH7760 themselvesH5921 againstH5921 thee with bucklerH4043 and shieldH4043 and helmetH6959 roundH5439 aboutH5439: and I will commitH5414 the judgmentH4941 unto them, and they shall judgeH8199 thee accordingH5921 to their judgmentsH4941.

25And I will setH5414 my jealousyH7068 againstH854 thee, and they shall dealH6213 with thee in furyH2534: they shall takeH3947 awayH5493 thy noseH639 and thine earsH241; and thy residue shall fallH5307 by the swordH2719: they shall takeH3947 thy sonsH1121 and thy daughtersH1323; and thy residue shall be devouredH398 by the fireH784.

26They shall also stripH6584 thee of thy clothesH899, and takeH3947 awayH3947 thy fair jewelsH3627.

27ThusH3808 will I makeH2142 thy lewdnessH2154 to ceaseH7673 from thee, and thy whoredom broughtH5375 from the landH776 of EgyptH4714: soH4480 that thou shalt notH3808 liftH5375 upH5375 thine eyesH5869 unto them, norH3808 rememberH2142 EgyptH4714 anyH4480 moreH4480.

28For thusH3541 saith the LordH136 GODH136: BeholdH2005, I will deliverH5414 thee intoH3027 the handH3027 of them whomH834 thou hatest, intoH3027 the handH3027 of them from whomH834 thy soulH5315 is alienatedH5361:

29and they shall dealH6213 with thee in hatredH8135, and shall takeH3947 awayH1540 allH3605 thy labour, and shall leaveH5800 thee nakedH5903 and bareH1540: and the nakednessH6172 of thy whoredoms shall be discovered, bothH3605 thy lewdnessH2154 and thy whoredoms.

30TheseH428 things shall be doneH6213 unto thee, for that thou hast gone a whoring afterH310 the heathen, and becauseH5921 thou art polluted with their idolsH1544.

31Thou hast walkedH1980 in the wayH1870 of thy sisterH269; therefore will I giveH5414 herH5414 cupH3563 intoH1980 thine handH3027.

32ThusH3541 saith the LordH136 GODH136: Thou shalt drinkH8354 of thy sister’sH269 cupH3563, which is deepH6013 and large: thou shalt be laughedH6712 to scorn and had in derision; it containeth muchH4767.

33Thou shalt be filledH4390 with drunkennessH7943 and sorrowH3015, with the cupH3563 of astonishment and desolationH8077, with the cupH3563 of thy sisterH269 SamariaH8111.

34Thou shalt evenH3588 drinkH8354 it and drainH4680 it outH4680, and thou shalt gnawH4680 the sherds thereof, and shalt tearH5423 thy breastsH7699: for I have spokenH1696 it, saith the LordH136 GODH136.

35Therefore thusH3541 saith the LordH136 GODH136: BecauseH3282 thou hast forgottenH7911 meH310, and castH7993 meH310 behindH310 thy backH310, therefore bearH5375 thou also thy lewdnessH2154 and thy whoredoms.
